Here it is the long drive back to Calafornia.....ditto

Monday week two, day two of our return leg

Well we got up early had breakfast, filled up with gas and hit the road. At each rest area was information about the early pioneers that trudged across this wilderness, and yes it still is. The tirip we were taking that would get us into California in about 8 hours would take those pioneers around a month to do. It raises the question why did the do it, what drove them on its amazing how they survived!

As we approached Reno we headed south into Carson City, capitol of Nevada did not know that!. Did not stop as we still had a way to go to our next stop. Jo snapped like mad as we swung arond Lake Tahoe, might go back there someday. Finally we found our route and off we sped leaving Tahoe with time getting on, but wait  we were going west and had moved from Mountain time to Pacific time so instead of arriving at Placerville at 8:00 we arrived at 7:00 a bonus. Found hotel, got food and hit the sack.

Tomorrow is Napa Valley yum, yum, yum.......or hic, hic, hic,

More pics,

 More mountains, more snow
 Friendly wildlife
 A bit beaten up but I think we can put it together Colin.
 Way out west.
